    Have to say that it seems they have learned the lessons of last year.

    The key to broadcasting from a music festival is to show live music.

    A lot less chat this time round. Not a bad selection of performances so far.

    They're great!

    Yeah the coverage has been very good so far. McDermott seems to have toned it down a lot, he's definitely improved

    Ireland's reputation has suffered enough recently lest it inflict EP on the world.

    Aye, not a bad line-up...most of the acts are also playing the always excellent Festival Number 6 this weekend in Portmeirion, North Wales (where 'The Prisoner' was filmed).

    No mics on the crowd or are they just not singing to Noel Gallagher?

    Yeah that's kind of disappointing.RTE have to ask the artist/band how many and which songs they can show from their set.

    Bit of a Julie Feeney vibe there, which is no bad thing.
